  • This Is How You Manifest Your Desire (Instead of Lack)

    On my blog I talk a lot about past life blocks to manifesting but sometimes for some people, there are no past life blocks. What you want to manifest is completely available to you, but you aren’t using conscious creation techniques in an effective way.

    Here’s one of the biggest pitfalls for those on a path of conscious creation and one that people fall into all the time…

    Thinking OF your desire instead of thinking FROM it.

    The Law of Assumption author and mystic Neville Goddard talked a lot about this.

    “The spanning of the bridge between desire—thinking of—and satisfaction—thinking from—is all-important. We must move mentally from thinking of the end to thinking from the end. This, reason could never do. By its nature it is restricted to the evidence of the senses; but imagination, having no such limitation, can. Desire exists to be gratified in the activity of imagination. Through imagination man escapes from the limitation of the senses and the bondage of reason.”

    Neville Goddard, Awakened Imagination (Chapter 2.)

    I remember the most effective conscious manifesting I ever did was when I was really sick with lupus and multiple times a day I would lie down and mentally go and seek the timeline where I was well. And I would go find that version of Anna and integrate her energy field into mine. And live in that for several minutes, or as long as I could. I’d shift timelines temporarily and experience something different. My health really changed for the better after about 2 weeks of doing that multiple times a day.

    (I explained the technique in this article.)

    That sense of living FROM that reality of being well was very different to the other techniques I had previously used like repeating robotic affirmations such as “I am full of energy”. When I repeated those, I was somehow aware that I was not full of energy — I was tired.

    I was thinking of my desire and I was desiring it. I was not experiencing the fulfilment of having it.

    I was doing techniques SO THAT I COULD HAVE IT.

    Some conscious creators spend years doing techniques to have what they want. And I actually think it’s OK to do that sometimes because those techniques can help ‘span the bridge between desire and satisfaction’ (as Neville Goddard puts it in that quote from Awakened Imagination).

    But if you are doing techniques to have your desire long term and nothing changes, either you need to shift your technique (try the technique in this article instead to help you to live FROM it rather than wishing for it.)

    Or if nothing changes after 3-6 months of daily conscious creation techniques, you should consider past life blocks/karmic complexes.

  • How a Past Life on the Run in Siberia Was Stopping Lewis from Marketing His Spiritual Book!

    In this article, I would like to share another Evolutionary Manifesting reading I did for a client who I’m going to call “Lewis”. 

    Lewis’s intention that he is working on manifesting is to make a contribution to humanity — a spiritual teaching or body of work that is all his own, that helps people. He mentioned that he has written a spiritually themed book, and needed to work on marketing it. 

    (To give a bit of background, Evolutionary Manifesting readings are comprehensive energetic audits of a client’s specific intentions that they are seeking to manifest. When someone’s manifesting efforts aren’t yielding results after say 3-6 months of manifesting work, this reading looks into any root energetic causes. It addresses any past life blocks and measures vital life force energy that is available for manifesting, and lots more. Evolutionary Manifesting readings look into what needs to change to bring about a desired intention in 3D reality, and recommends a solution for any blocks that do come up. 

    Note: I go into past life blocks — or what I call karmic complexes — in this article. If you’re unfamiliar with the idea that past life blocks can affect our manifesting, it’s a good place to start and I recommend reading it before you continue with this article.)

    Here is the reading I did for Lewis:

    “You had a male lifetime in the northeastern tip of Siberia during the 1700s (it was in the part that is opposite Alaska).

    I was shown that you were a leader of the indigenous people there. During that time, the Russian army was moving into the indigenous peoples’ territory to tax them but there was a resistance happening and you were one of the indigenous military leaders.

    However, you didn’t have much training or experience. Initially, you and your men mocked the Imperial army for being inept in your terrain and there was a lot of confidence among your forces.

    There was a woman in your life whom you were in love with – I think you brought her along for the military expedition. She agreed with everything you said and built you up, “yes’ing” everything – she genuinely was in awe of you and because of that advised you badly and you listened to her.

    I was shown that there was a catastrophic defeat because of a tactical decision you made, or a series of decisions. You lost supplies and men – they were cut down in a battle. You had to flee for your life on foot. I saw you retreating and fleeing in the snow. You left behind the woman you loved and in order to save your own life, you could not go back for her.

    I feel a real sense of defeat, melancholy, and a sense that this was down to your own catastrophic mistakes. The phrase that came from your past life self was “this leadership stuff isn’t as easy as it looks” and you felt you were completely out of your depth in that battle.

    I feel a total loss of faith in your abilities and a sense of humility and skepticism when it comes to your own self concept and skills. The scene I was shown was you jumping without a safety net and slamming face first into concrete (as a metaphor).

    After you fled, you disappeared into the wilderness and were actively hunted. You had to travel on foot for a very long way. You had survival skills but it was tough. You went South West until you reached a town and I’m seeing a sort of “wild west” vibe to it. I think it was a town with lots of gambling/vice dens. I saw you disguised yourself as a beggar initially.

    You felt a lot of shame that you couldn’t go back to the place your men were killed or to find your beloved. I heard the phrase “I should have gone back to meet my maker or my fate”.

    Instead, you hid. After begging initially, mainly as a disguise, you started working at night in one of these vice dens. You had to transform your appearance and your personality, lest you be recognised. I saw you coming into contact with other people you knew but having to hide and not acknowledge them. Like becoming a new person somehow and succeeding at it.

    This experience of defeat, displacement and disguise completely broke your spirit in that life. You had deep roots in your place and among your community but you found yourself adrift and lost.

    (By the way, I was told the woman from that life whom you lost was a girlfriend or romantic partner from your late 20s/early 30s. )

    You lived for 5 more years after the defeat. You could not get over what happened or build a life as a displaced man. You lived at night to avoid detection (the Russian forces were hunting down the leaders of your tribe whom they suspected survived). You had to blend into the crowd. You lived on the fringes and were terrified of being caught.

    I was shown you died of an illness – it was perhaps pneumonia or TB. But really in spirit it was like you died that day on the battlefield with your men and after you escaped, you existed and went through the motions but you weren’t fully alive. There was a lot of trauma and loss. 

    I was shown at the end of that life you took a vow of humility – “don’t assume you know anything”. (To avoid ‘slamming face first into the concrete’ again.)

    The effect this karmic complex has on you is that it binds up your throat chakra – Lewis, I can see that you received a secondary Godspark at the throat chakra a few years ago (this came up in your Akashic Record reading with me) which means that communication/teaching is part of your soul’s purpose and will be part of the contribution you make. But this karmic complex means you’re not free to step into that purpose.

    I can see you have binding over your throat, and the best way I can describe how this looks is when a woman wants to pass as a man and be disguised she would need to bind her chest.

    After the defeat, you had to transform your appearance and personality. You couldn’t even laugh out loud. You couldn’t disclose any honest facts about your past or project your personality. These are the areas of your throat chakra that are impacted – this sense of “I have to hide; I have to stay anonymous, in order to be safe”.

    “I’m going to bind this area up to pass as someone I’m not”

    Whatever you come up with in terms of your spiritual communication/teaching will somehow lack something of your own personality or energy, no matter how much you try to make it your own, and this effect is a hangover from that previous life.

    Basically I think there is survivor’s guilt from that past life – a sense of not feeling good enough; of not feeling worthy; of denying yourself your calling as a result because it ended badly in that life.

    I also think the past life self who went through the events of that life does not want you to focus on your work in a disciplined way or see projects through to completion, and will interfere with that. He wants you to stay safe and doesn’t want you to get a bunch of men killed due to your choices. Obviously these fears are out of time and place.

    He says:

    “I have to hide”

    “I have to blend in”

    “I’m a loser/not good enough”

    “Don’t let your personality escape – instead be someone you’re not”

    “Be as anonymous as possible.”

    These attitudes will be filtering through into your subconscious and will impact on your work.

    This past life self is very focused on you not repeating his trauma, so he wants you to hide and not take a leap or be confident in your projects.”

    The reading also shared with Lewis the most effective modality to overcome this karmic complex.

    Historical research

    After the reading, I did a bit of historical research and found that this timeline and scenario matched the Chukchi resistance against the expansion of the Russian Empire in Siberia during the 1700s.

    I have to say that it is very interesting learning about history from the inside out – from the perspective of those who actually lived in those times. I feel I am becoming a historian of the soul, and learning about earthly history at the same time.

  • How I Came to Accept Myself & my Biggest Flaw

    In 2006, I was living in Dijon, France and had a job teaching English at the University of Burgundy. 

    There wasn’t as much on the internet back then but there were some personal development blogs and resources that I found, and in the evenings after my teaching job, I used to enjoy reading these blogs about how to overcome flaws. I realised my biggest flaw was perfectionism.

    This was something I struggled with very much — I needed to do everything perfectly and I felt shame about not being ‘good enough’.

    I remember one evening typing in to a search engine ‘Ask Jeeves’ – ‘why am I such a perfectionist?’ I was looking for a resource that could explain it to me. But I never did find clear answers as to why I struggled with perfectionism in 2006. I only came away with a sense that something was ‘wrong’ with me for being so tightly wound and the shame deepened. Shame around not feeling good enough and shame around being a perfectionist, too! (A double whammy of shame.)

    A year later when I was living and teaching in Spain I had the chance to get an Akashic Record reading, and I discovered some of the reasons I struggled with perfectionism.

    Conventional wisdom would say I struggled with perfectionism because I grew up in a narcissistic family. That makes total sense.

    But there was a deeper level to where the perfectionism came from, that I could have missed without the Akashic Record reading, and it was linked to my soul gifts. 

    The reading told me about two aspects of my soul’s identity:

    1. My Archangelic realm of training
    2. My soul group of origin (otherwise known as my starseed origins).

    I’ll start with the second one — the soul group of origin. 

    My soul group of origin turned out to be Sirian, and the most defining trait of a Sirian soul is their desire to improve — themselves, the world around them and certainly their own performance. They also worry that things will blow up in their faces if they ‘do it wrong’.

    So, my soul gift is the desire to improve, but the shadow side of that is perfectionism — taking that desire to improve to extremes, which does sometimes happens for the conscientious Sirians.

    And then the Archangelic realm of training also shed light on this perfectionistic attitude I had.

    Just a bit of background on what the Archangelic realm of training is:

    When our souls are newly birthed, we spend time in one of eight realms of training. These eight realms are realms that embody energies that we encounter here on Earth, and they correlate loosely with the eight main chakras. And each realm is presided over by an Archangel. 

    We spend time in one chosen realm as a soul and then the energies of that realm become a part of us.

    The realm that I’d spent time in was the third realm, which is the realm of balance, aesthetics, justice and perfection.

    So the most two defining aspects of my soul showed a tendency towards seeking perfection, and this is the shadow side of my soul gifts.

    The soul gifts themselves have been useful in my career because I do strive to excel and improve on existing systems and processes. For example, when teaching students how to clear spaces I don’t just tell them to do some smudging. Instead, I cover all bases. My courses are comprehensive and no one could call them too basic or a simple rehash or regurgitation of what’s been done before by others. 

    If I had not had my Akashic Record reading, I would never know where these traits came from on a deeper level and that they also were helping me in my life and work. Instead, perhaps I’d still be in therapy trying to find the roots of my perfectionism in my childhood.

    This is the value of having your Akashic soul record read by someone who knows how.

    These two defining aspects of your soul profile (the soul group of origin and the Archangelic realm of training) can shed a lot of light on why you are as you are, so you can accept yourself.

    I offer an affordable mini reading that tells clients which starseed group and which Archangelic realm they belong to. Put these two together and you have a clear portrait of who someone is on the soul level, including their gifts and what they may struggle with.

    These mini readings are 10% off for the next 8 days and they can be booked here.

  • How Karmic Complexes Get Formed in the First Place – The #1 Scenario

    Since 2024, I’ve been doing Evolutionary Manifesting readings, where I explore the past life blocks that are stopping clients from manifesting their goals. (I call these past life blocks ‘karmic complexes’ and if you’re new to this term, you can read about it here.)

    Karmic complexes are traumas that impact the soul. They can be caused by defeats, losses and tragedies that we go through during any given incarnation and which we do not recover from in the lifetime in which they occurred. The trauma is such that the past life self who goes through the experience dies with serious unfinished business.

    Because the nature of trauma is to repeat itself until it finds resolution, with a karmic complex, we will find ourselves repeating the same sort of experience over and over in our lives, and one lifetime after another, in an attempt to ‘downgrade’ the original trauma and find resolution. (But there is a solution to these unwanted repeating patterns, and that is what Evolutionary Manifesting is all about.)

    When I do an Evolutionary Manifesting reading, I research for clients whether they have a karmic complex, and if so, what are the past life experiences that originated their karmic complex? And how these past life experiences are echoing through their life today, and preventing them from having the life they want. 

    In this article, I’m going to talk about the most common reason for a severe karmic complex being kicked off in the first place. 

    It is suicide.

    I’ll give you an example in a reading I recently did for a client. 

    This client is someone who has a successful, spiritually themed YouTube channel. However, she wants to expand her business or her vocation by writing a book, and found herself feeling blocked. So she got a reading with me. Here is what it said:

    You have one karmic complex affecting the manifestation of your desired intention.

    I’m going to tell you the story of how this karmic complex was initiated. 

    You had a male lifetime in Argentina during the 1700s.

    In that life, you were married with lots of daughters. You lived in a place in Argentina where it was quite cold but the terrain was beautiful. You were involved in the smuggling trade. In that life, you struggled with ongoing feelings of depression, a fear of failure and despondency. 

    The smuggling that you were involved in, I was told, was technically criminal but not unethical. (You didn’t harm anyone with what you were doing.) I was told that you were living high on the hog and spending a lot of money. Your family had a very beautiful lifestyle but you were spending all of the money that came in. And you had no other skills or sources of income except your smuggling business. 

    The people in charge knew what you were up to and wanted to put a stop to it. They played a game of ‘cat and mouse’ with you for a while and devised a plan to cut off your money flow but without warning you or confronting you. This may have involved undercover informants. They worked out how your business worked and then strangled the business.

    You lost your money source overnight through this process and you had no savings to fall back on. You were plunged into poverty compared to how you were living before. I am wondering if the family wealth was seized by the authorities for this descent into poverty to be so fast. 

    You started drinking a lot in order to deal with the trauma and one day you you decided to go out into an isolated place in nature and commit suicide(I’m sorry this story is not a very nice one – I realise this is emotionally weighty.)

    Your family did not know where you had disappeared to and it took 4-5 months before your body was found. However, the body was never identified as yours and your family never knew what happened to you. 

    (By the way, your parents in this lifetime were 2 of your daughters in that previous life.)   

    I looked into this historical scenario and it was called the Mercantilist Monopoly: Spain had set up a system whereby goods could only come to Argentina from Spain via Peru and they were heavily taxed. No goods were allowed into the country from anywhere else. But this meant that everyday items such as tools or textiles were inaccessible to the majority of the population and so there was a big trade in smuggling and it was seen as necessary for survival – this fits the ‘criminal but not unethical’ characteristic I was given.

    I think you were smuggling alcohol from other places in Europe, perhaps France. Apparently the method the authorities used to put you out of business was very common – if the authorities confronted people directly there could be rioting or resistance so they did it by stealth and so you wouldn’t have known at all that you were being investigated nor would you have seen it coming. I also found there was a big crackdown in 1776 because of a change of policy and smugglers who had been trading comfortably for years went out of business and went bankrupt overnight in this way.

    This past-life aspect died with significant unresolved trauma, creating a pocket of unfinished business that has yet to be completely integrated into your soul. Healing this past life self and bringing this part of your soul’s history into resolution is necessary for your evolution, and I will explain how you can do that in a moment. 

    Right now, this unintegrated aspect is operating beneath your conscious awareness. Out of a desire to protect you from a repetition of their past losses, they are sending defensive impulses into your psyche, to protect you from repeating the original trauma.

    This is a past life self who feels he failed, and feels a lack of hope. He also felt victimised by the authorities. He also felt very much out of the loop because he didn’t see this ambush coming. 

    So, the energies that characterise this karmic complex are: failure, hopelessness, victimisation, being ‘out of the loop’ and self-denial (denying oneself what one wants). 

    I also saw that this karmic complex has affected your trust in your own intuition to some degree and this may be around practical things, because this past life self did not see it coming. He feels a sense of self-devaluation around how perceptive he was. This karmic complex affects you at the third eye chakra in the area of intuition. 

    I saw that this complex has an impact on your heart chakra – this past life self has not forgiven himself for letting his wife and daughters down financially and this complex also impacts on the area of romantic relationships (although I know you didn’t ask about that or have an intention related to that). This past life self is afraid of letting loved ones down and taking on responsibilities (such as children) in case he fails again.

    He also doesn’t want you to finish projects you start and his lingering trauma affects how confident you feel at work. I know you have a successful YouTube channel so it looks like you’ve done a good job of succeeding in spite of this karmic complex. But it is slowing things down somewhat because it is a significant complex. 

    This past life self is sending the following messages into your subconscious mind:

    “Don’t even try or go there. You will let everyone down. Best to stay where you are”

    “It’s best not to have responsibilities”

    “Don’t assume you can, or be overly confident” 

    “Don’t dream or have ambitions”.

    He is protecting you from failure, loss and disappointment. He does not want you to go through the devastating losses he experienced, so he would prefer that you stay where you are professionally.

    (As an aside, the client let me know that she felt she had trouble committing to things in her life and this karmic complex resonated.)

    The link between a severe karmic complex and suicide

    This gives an example of how dying by suicide can really exacerbate the trauma that causes a karmic complex and make it worse.

    Note that there are two levels to a karmic complex — what I refer to as a ‘level one’ karmic complex (which is a severe complex) and a ‘level two’ karmic complex which is less severe. 

    Level one karmic complexes are initiated by serious defeats that often involve loss of life or a loss of a dearly loved one. Level two karmic complexes tend to be ones that involve a loss of one’s home, status, fortune, income or career. 

    Suicide will take a level two karmic complex and turn it into a level one complex, exacerbating the severity. This means that instead of simply dying with unfinished business and unresolved trauma as per a level two complex, the past life self dies with unresolved trauma and also becomes earthbound, meaning a piece of the past life self’s emotional and mental bodies are left behind on the earth plane, representing soul loss. The events of the past life are therefore very unintegrated and a serious wound on the soul that needs to be resolved. This wound will echo into future lifetimes until it gets resolved. And it will likely echo again and again, both within one lifetime and lifetime after lifetime. 

    An example of this is, a person who can easily manifest a romantic relationship but the partner is not a good one. And bad partners are all they can manifest into their life. And this is something they manifest lifetime after lifetime. That echo is the manifestation of a karmic complex.

    (This also happens with a level two karmic complex, but the echo will be less severe and impactful.)

    If the past life self (in that previous life in Argentina) had faced his problems head on and stayed alive, there would have been a downgrading of the trauma that occurred or at least not a worsening. But that was possibly too much to ask of the past life self and he wasn’t able to manage it, and I can understand that.

    In conclusion…

    Suicide makes things worse on the soul level. It is not a solution, earthside or on the other side. 

    So, this is just an article for those who are interested in karmic complexes and how they get formed and exacerbated. And also perhaps for those who may consider suicide, which makes problems worse for the soul and is to be avoided for that reason.

    The solution instead is to turn towards resolution of a karmic complex. 

  • This Is Why Psychic Developers Often Fail to Fully Awaken Their Abilities (& How to Fix It)

    Lots of people who set out to develop their intuitive abilities do so because they want to be able to communicate with the unseen world on demand. They want access to their Spirit Guides. They want to be able to connect with their higher self and their angels. They want guidance, advice, protection and to live a life infused with grace and awe.

    But lots of people who go down this path never get there. Maybe their intuition opens up in flashes, but they can’t seem to turn it on on demand. Or perhaps it never opens up in the first place. And there are 3 main reasons why that happens – 3 potholes to fall into on the path, if you like.

    In this article, I’m going to explain what those 3 potholes are and how you can make sure to avoid them.

    If you would like to develop your intuitive abilities but you’ve never reached your potential in this area, pay attention because one of these reasons will apply to you.

    Pothole #1: You don’t have a plan with a structure to it

    The number one reason people don’t manage to develop their psychic abilities is because they don’t have a plan. They might listen to some guided meditations on YouTube, do some exercises in a book and wear a crystal that opens up their third eye. But there’s no structure or plan to what they’re doing.

    Developing psychic abilities is like building a staircase to get to your destination. The staircase doesn’t have loads of steps but it does have a few and you need to know what those steps are.

    Miss one of the steps and you’ll have an unusable staircase and you won’t be able to connect with Spirit. 

    One of the steps is that you need to master stillness or get practised in getting into the alpha state.

    Another step is that you need to be able to raise your vibration at will to build a bridge to connect with Spirit.

    The problem with doing things here and there to develop your abilities (like a guided meditation or some exercises from a book) is that you may be building one step of your staircase, but missing something else that would build another missing step.

    And so you end up with some of your steps built, but you’re missing one, and you can’t use your staircase to connect. That’s very common when you have no plan and you don’t know what the steps are and what you’re missing.

    Let’s have a look at the second most common reason for not managing to develop one’s psychic abilities.

    Pothole #2: You are developing and using the wrong intuitive senses for you

    The second most common reason for not managing to develop your psychic abilities is that you’re trying to hone psychic gifts you don’t have and then you’re using that gift you’re not strong in to try to connect with Spirit..

    (There are several psychic gifts, including clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience and claircognizance.)

    That can be a real uphill struggle.

    You need to know what your natural intuitive gifts are, and which techniques utilise those gifts and are right for you. You also need to have exercises to hone those particular gifts.

    So step 1 is identifying your strongest gifts, step two is sensitizing those specific gifts and step 3 is finding the techniques to connect with Spirit that strictly utilise those gifts. You need to be strategic about how you approach this.

    Pothole #3: You haven’t set up your ‘spiritual security system’.

    Some people do manage to build their staircase and develop their gifts, but once they do, they often don’t have a plan for avoiding the sources of negative guidance (like random earthbound spirits). And they don’t like having psychic abilities because they’re getting guidance that does not feel positive to them.

    This is totally unnecessary and you need to know how to channel safely so you can get the high-vibrational guidance and totally skip the negative sources of guidance.

    So those are the top 3 reasons for not managing to develop psychic abilities:

    1. Having no plan and not knowing what you’re missing
    2. Developing, honing and utilising gifts that you’re not strong in
    3. Not having a way to cut off negative sources of guidance.

    Sixteen years ago, I created the Intuitive Awakening Course to solve these 3 problems for psychic developers. Over this time period, thousands of students have taken this program, asked questions, and helped me refine the process into a really comprehensive step-by-step framework!

    My process eliminates the guesswork:

    1. I teach you how to repel negative sources of guidance very early on
    2. I help you discover your unique spiritual gifts and hone only those, so you can stop swimming upstream and start using the techniques that actually work for you.
    3. I give you the exact process to build your staircase to connect with Spirit.

    All of this wisdom collected over 20 years or so is in my Intuitive Awakening Course, in a 13 module course with written materials, audio lectures and guided meditations.

    Intuitive Awakening Course

    It’s currently 50% off. Normally it costs $499 but it’s $250 until 8pm EST on Thursday 1st Oct.

    The last time it was on sale publicly was over 2 years ago!

    Here are some pieces of feedback that students have given me:

    “The not so obvious reason I would highly recommend this course is for the organization.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the Intuitive Awakening Course for several reasons. The obvious is that I become more intuitive and was able to strengthen my psychic abilities, gaining the confidence to use these skills daily. It provided me with clear and succinct focus. Before beginning the course I felt scattered and unclear about which book, meditation or exercise I should practice to achieve my intuitive goals. Anna’s course took me through the exact processes and exercises so that my skills advanced at the right level without me feeling overwhelmed by the information. Thank you.”

    – Danna Yahav, HumanDesignShadow.com, Energetic Soul Coach

    “I was not a beginner, but this course really helped me understand the skills I have been working with.

    The Intuitive Awakening Course is perfect. It really opened my skills further. I was not a beginner, but this course really helped me to understand the skills I have been working with. My main skill is Clairaudience, closely followed by Clairvoyance and Clairsentience and on occasions I work with Claircognizance. I was also an open Empath and I have now learned to control this, which really helps with my healing work. The meditations are excellent. As a healer, I love the cleansing of the Chakras too.

    This course has also encouraged me to take a BSY Diploma in Psychic counselling/consultant. I would recommend this course to anyone who wishes to awaken their intuitive abilities or work on their already existing skills. Intuitive Awakening is just truly amazing and totally mind blowing. It is an excellent course and one which I have recommended to many. The results are amazing.”

    – Helen Hageman

    A level of ongoing support that is unusual at this price point…

    Did I mention that your enrollment comes with access to a dedicated student forum for a whole year?

    If you have questions about the materials or your personal process of psychic development as you go through the modules, you can post them there and I will personally answer them.

    To be honest, not everyone who takes the course uses the forum. But when you choose to, I am more than happy to answer as many questions as come up for you over 12 months. This level of direct access and support from a mentor is incredibly rare in the marketplace at this price point!

    And by the way, most people are not going to develop their abilities through a sudden trauma, or a near death experience.

    You do not have to wait for something turbulent to happen in your life to open up your third eye. You can instead open up your abilities in a safe, steady way. And that’s what I teach people to do.

  • How the Mind is the Biggest Enemy of Intuition & 3 Takeaways for Psychic Developers

    A student of mine recently told me a story about an intuitive hit she had many years ago.  (She has allowed me to share this story for educational purposes.)

    She went on a date with someone she met online. I’m going to call him “Greg”. As she met him and said hello, the words came into her head “this man has legal problems” and she had the sense that Greg had a criminal record.

    But he was really sweet, gentle and kind…very chivalrous, too, and she started to think she must have been wrong. She was under a lot of stress when she met him, and so she assumed she had been projecting her stress onto him and was just a bit jumpy. 

    The more she got to know Greg, the more she decided she was wrong. He was so kind. And then he told her a story about being falsely accused of a crime. He’d even been on TV having been arrested for the crime and then it was found he was actually framed (and this was a documented fact that he could prove). She decided that her intuition had picked up on this: Greg had had legal problems, and it hadn’t been his fault. 

    And she also had concrete evidence that his criminal record was completely clear — phew. Greg had never been charged with or found guilty of anything. 

    So she was wrong.

    Except, she wasn’t.

    She later found out (again, through her own intuition which caused her to investigate and find the truth) that this man was actually involved in organised crime and had never been caught. 

    His lovely personality was a well practised persona and the real Greg was an absolute sociopath. But it took years for this to come to light and by then, she had been through the wringer with him.

    This experience fractured her relationship with her own intuition.

    At the time, she was doing readings for others professionally and she was so badly affected by her own failure to see this man’s darkness and heed her guidance, that she stopped reading for others. She decided she wasn’t fit to be reading for others if she had failed this badly herself. And she never went back to the readings.

    She was trying to heal the lost faith in her own intuition and that’s why she ended up taking one of my courses.

    She asked me: Was she OK to be giving readings again to others?

    I thought that she was being overly hard on herself. 

    Intuitive warnings about people in our lives are not always easy to heed!

    The hardest part about getting intuitive warnings is that we often do not want to listen to them, and the mind will sometimes talk us out of them. When we get “negative” info about someone or something, what the mind will do is try to explain away, relabel or interpret the info we get. This is something that happens after we get the intuitive hit. And this can dilute or change how we see the info. 

    For example, my student was told, he has legal problems. That could have been phrased more helpfully and clearly. Her intuition ideally would have said “he’s a criminal”. But for some reason, it didn’t.

    But “he has legal problems” is something to look into and keep in mind.

    What her mind did instead is look for evidence he did not have legal problems (because of his lovely persona). 

    It also went looking for concrete evidence that she was wrong (and he didn’t actually have a criminal record)

    And it came up with reasons why she might have been wrong (such as her own stress). 

    Sometimes intuition will be along the right lines but slightly ‘off’ in how it comes through, and this is not uncommon.

    Intuition can be a bit symbolic and slightly roundabout in the way it comes through.

    But we also need to be open to the energy of what comes through and the general symbolism. Rather than honing in on the specifics and writing it off if it doesn’t match exactly.

    Another example of this: several years ago, I used to do remote viewing exercises where I’d be given a file number of a random photo online and I’d remote view and see what the photo was of.

    One of the things I learned about this process was how willing back then my mind was to put a label on the intuition I got, and change it, despite being right the first time.

    For example, one time during the remote viewing, I saw a big blue expanse. Rather than say to myself, ‘I see a big blue expanse’, my mind said “it’s the sea!”. I wrote down, the sea. When I opened up the photo it was a blue sky. Yet my mind had been so sure it was the sea.

    This has happened enough times to me over the years that I have learned to tell clients what I pick up undiluted, without labelling it. Or if I do label it, tell clients that this was my interpretation, and separate that from what I perceived, but pass on both, making it clear which is which. 

    So why am I sharing this?

    I think it’s a good lesson for developing intuitives to separate the hit from the interpretation and be aware of:

    1. What is the info

    2. What is the mind’s story about what the info is. 

    Also write down HOW the hit came. Was it a vision? If so, what did you see? Was it a feeling or gut instinct? What did it feel like? Was it words? If so, what were they verbatim? 

    Writing the info out helps to separate the hit from the mind’s story about the hit. 

    Another couple of tips:

    1. Sometimes we don’t even notice what is the intuitive hit and what is our mind’s separate interpretation of it. Mindfulness meditation can help us to get into the practice of noticing our internal processes. This is why I recommend that psychic developers have a daily meditation practice. 

    2. The reason we get intuitive hits about people is so that we can have all the info we need to deal with them. We don’t tend to get irrelevant info about people. Spirit wasn’t giving my student this info about Greg “out of interest”. It was so she could protect herself.

    PS. even though my student did not follow her intuition and she felt it had damaged her relationship with her own guidance, there was a silver lining… 

    She ended up meeting her current, much loved husband through the events that occurred with Greg and when she met him, there was no intuitive warning or info at all. She just felt comfortable and safe from day one. 

    PPS. Even though there is a lesson in this story, I also think that my student needed to cut herself some serious slack and start doing readings again professionally. Her intuition did what it was able to do at the time to warn her, and continued to warn her throughout the relationship, but sociopaths and personality disordered people can be very convincing and charming.

  • How a Past Life as a Priest in Mexico was Stopping my Client from Stepping into her Soul’s Purpose

    In this post, I want to share a reading I did for a woman I’m going to call “Sally”. Sally is someone who wishes to step into her spiritual calling full time and requested an Evolutionary Manifesting reading with me to look into any blocks she may have around this intention.

    (Evolutionary Manifesting readings are comprehensive energetic assessments of any given intention that a client wishes to manifest. For example, if a client wants to be a full time intuitive but their manifesting work has not yielded dividends and they feel blocked, this reading can tell them why. It looks at past life blocks, whether the person currently has enough vital life force energy to manifest their intention, and more. It is also very solution oriented and lets the client know what needs to change in order to bring about their intention.)

    Note: I explain more about past life blocks (or what I refer to as karmic complexes) in this article. If you’re new to this term, I recommend reading it first. 

    OK, so here’s an excerpt from her reading:

    You had a lifetime as a priest in Mexico around 500 years ago.

    You lived in a city beginning with ‘Ox’.

    Your work as a priest was something you inherited from your family – it was in your family line. You had a name or a nickname as a priest that was something like ‘the one who has lightning coming out of his fingers’.

    Although you were born into the work, it really suited you and you felt very connected to Divine Power when you did your rituals and summoned the deities. It was like you were plugged into a spiritual plug outlet and Divine Power ran through your body and that was why you had the nickname you did. Because of this, supernatural phenomena occurred during your rituals and you had the reputation of being someone who was a good manifester; who could call on the Divine and be answered. You could make things happen through spiritual means and you felt the power of the Divine. It was a very cool space to work from. I found that Tlaloc was the God of lightning for the Aztecs and I think you were skilled at channelling his power in your physical body.

    One morning you woke up early to the sound of screaming and the smell of fire. Your city was being sacked by the Spanish. You usually did not go out without your priestly garb but you knew the city was being invaded and you chose not to wear it. You fled, dressed as a layperson/civilian. There was a body of water in the city and people were fleeing to it to try to get away from the soldiers. You went there, too. I think the soldiers followed because I saw blood in the water. They may have been firing arrows or gunshots into the water.

    You prayed but no miracles occurred. The power had gone out of your fingers and you felt vulnerable.

    You drowned in the lake not because you couldn’t swim but because someone else couldn’t swim and they used you to hold onto.

    This past life self said to me:

    “My abilities didn’t help me when it counted”

    “I was abandoned by the Divine”

    “I was stripped of my powers and abilities right at the moment I needed them – in the end they were only useful for useless stuff like random supernatural phenomena”

    “How dare they do this to my people?”

    “How is it that I wasn’t able to stop this or help?”

    “Was any of it real?” (my abilities)

    There is a profound, sudden, devastating loss of faith with this karmic complex. Also, anger and fury. The soldiers were brutal. I saw throat slitting and all kinds of barbarities.

    The sense from this past life self is: spiritual abilities are not useful (for me or anyone else). Focus on something more practical. They won’t save you. There’s also a sense of skepticism (i.e. were the abilities even real?)

    This is a past life self who feels he failed at keeping himself and others safe, hates himself for the failure and experienced a sudden, devastating wound to his self-esteem around his spiritual abilities and their utility.

    So, the energies that characterise this karmic complex are: failure, self-loathing, depression, unworthiness and ingratitude (a sense that all the beautiful mystical experiences were a lie and were for nothing because of how that life ended).

    I think that this karmic complex is impacting on your ability to step into your spiritual calling because I can see that it impacts on self-confidence at work, and also your confidence in your own self-expression. This complex also impacts on the chakra databank of planning/strategising at the third eye chakra. So, it looks like this past life sub character chips away at your confidence and does not want you to come up with plans to move ahead with your spiritual business.

    He is protecting you from failure, trauma, loss of power and spiritual abandonment. He does not want you to go through the devastating losses he experienced, so he would prefer that you stay where you are and not move forward with your calling.

    The reading also shared with her the most effective modality to overcome this karmic complex.

    One of the most interesting things about doing an Evolutionary Manifesting reading for me these days is how much I am learning about history.

    For example, I found the following after the reading:

    1. The invasion of Mexico by the Spanish took place just over 500 years ago

    2. Some of the captured Mexican cities were indeed on lakes and the people did flee into the lakes but the Spanish pursued them in canoes and killed them. There was a Nahuatl manuscript compiled around 1523, known as the ‘Cantares Mexicanos’ which is a lamentation written by survivors of the fall of the Aztec empire.

    Here’s an excerpt from the Cantares Mexicanos:

    “Our cries of grief rise up and our tears rain down…

    The Aztecs are fleeing across the lake…

    The water has turned red, as if it were dyed,

    and when we drink it, it has the taste of brine.” 

    The Cantares Mexicanos also mirrored some of the flavours of the trauma of Sally’s karmic complex, such as: (“why were we, as spiritually empowered and connected people, so badly let down by God?”)

    3. The priests who fled the invasion did so without their priestly garb to avoid attracting attention and becoming high value captives.

    4. Nahuatl is an agglutinative language, meaning that instead of using separate adjectives, speakers strung together separate root words and prefixes to form one long highly descriptive word. So a name like “the one who has lightning coming out of his fingers” was typical. And Aztec priests did aim to channel the power of the Gods, such as the God of lightning.

    5. The Spanish were slitting throats all over the place during that invasion.

    It is very interesting to learn about history from the inside experiences of those who lived it…

    …Even if it is not always pleasant to witness what is going on. 

    We carry dozens of forgotten lives inside us like this, and some of them haunt us with their own traumas. But we don’t have to remain stuck in their trauma loops. We can clear what is holding us back, but first we need to know where it comes from and how it affects us. 

    Something that I have noticed is a core trauma for those who want to develop their psychic abilities or their spiritual gifts is that in past lives, their gifts failed them at a key moment and ended in their demise. But the fact is, we all have a limited amount of time on this Earth. Psychic abilities can help us to live well, and avoid danger in many cases but they cannot stop us from meeting our maker if it is time. But past life selves who are spiritually or psychically gifted can end up feeling ashamed and abandoned when their gifts don’t help them in a dangerous situation or even actively work against them. Then when those past life selves do not cross over to the other side after death and remain unintegrated within us, they can feed us undermining advice that can be mistaken for intuition.

    If you’d like to know if you are carrying anything within your soul that is stopping you from reaching a particular goal, you can book an Evolutionary Manifesting reading here. If you’re a practitioner who would like to learn how to do this type of reading for others, check out the Evolutionary Manifesting Course. 

  • How to Spot & Avoid AI Generated Intuitive Readings

    In recent times, clients and students have shown me readings that they purchased, that have the unmistakable hallmark of AI rather than channelling. What happened in these cases is that the customer found an intuitive online or on Etsy, supplied info for a reading and then received an email PDF that was ‘feel good’ but which lacked substance and sounded like AI.

    AI readings are on the rise, and this is because intuitive readings require skill, are hard work (cognitively speaking) and are not always convenient to do.

    Here are the reasons for that:

    1. As an intuitive, you need to do the work from a peaceful space. No kids, no dogs that won’t settle or kittens wrestling in the background. I live in urban Caacupé (Latin America is a noisy place) and if a neighbour plays music that I can’t block out with earplugs  – that has a strong bass element to it – I cannot do a reading.

    2. You may need to put aside whatever is going on in your own life. For example, if you’re upset or feeling really stressed, you need to settle those feelings before moving forwards.

    3. If you’re a perfectionist like me, you’ll have to deal with worries of ‘doing it right’. No matter how experienced you are, you can still deal with perfectionism and worry because you really want to help your client and do a great job.

    4. You then need to do the work of doing the reading. In the case of my Evolutionary Manifesting readings, for example, it can be genuinely hard work for my brain and psyche. I have to use my intuition and also my analytical skills to do detective work and put the past life story together.

    I occasionally dream about people’s past life stories and gain more info that way, or I think about the info I gained and process it off the clock. Some would say this is bad boundaries, but it’s how I sometimes work. It can happen this way because I’m dealing with a lot of info that needs to be processed and understood.

    5. Then I need to write it up and explain the findings well. I do have some filler text (email templates) to help me with explanations for my Evolutionary Manifesting readings, but the parts that I channel, I am explaining and writing in the moment.

    It would be so much easier & quicker to put the customer’s reading info into AI and tell it, “give me a reading for this person that reflects their concerns.”

    AI can even draw and interpret Tarot cards for you. AI generated readings can often make you feel good, and offer comfort and reassurance. But they are a waste of the client’s time and money, and a violation of trust.

    In my view, it is out of integrity to be offering AI generated psychic or intuitive readings because clients can just put their info into a LLM like Chat GPT for free and get the same outcome. People sometimes make decisions based on the info they receive, and AI is not drawing on any spiritual sources, and therefore does not have enough insight to be taken seriously in this way.

    My students are taught genuine techniques for gaining info intuitively and I receive info from the Akashic Records or from Spirit Guides – not from AI. I sit and work with pen and paper, noting down my findings before I put together my email readings.

    I recommend asking readers: “Do you use any AI tools in your readings?” before purchasing. If they get defensive about the question, it’s a red flag. Readers should be open to answering questions about their process.

    It is worth differentiating between genuine channelled findings that someone uses AI to structure, present or write out, and insights that are not channelled but AI generated. I wouldn’t necessarily write off the former scenario, although in my opinion, I don’t think it’s good practice (unless the reader is intentional about it and only uses AI for structuring text or proof reading) because if you let AI write the whole reading, AI puts its own spin on things and can distort the energy of the reading by changing your wording.

    Here are the signs a channelled reading is AI generated:

    1. This is not a sign on its own, but email readings are more likely to be AI, especially if you buy on a marketplace like Etsy. Even shops with thousands of sales and hundreds of reviews may not be genuine, because Etsy reviews can be purchased nowadays. On the other hand, there are genuine intuitives on Etsy. (I’ve trained some of them.)

    2. The AI reading won’t tell you any hard truths or take any risks. Back when I did phone readings, people used to send me photos of for example, someone they’re thinking of dating. If I felt someone was trouble, I’d say so. I wouldn’t give a generic, risk-averse, feel good response, just for the sake of it. AI will, though. If you get several AI readings you’ll notice the reader isn’t going out on a limb or taking any bold risks in what they’re telling you in any of them. It’s all generic, feel good stuff.

    3. The reader admits to doing it quickly. One of my clients who had a reading that turned out to be AI generated was told their long channelled reading was done in 10 mins. It takes 10 mins just to tune in and start getting info, never mind channelling a long reading and then putting it together as an email reading. Putting the client’s info into an AI program and copying and pasting what it spits out, on the other hand, could take 10 mins. Not everyone will be truthful about it, but asking your reader how long it takes them to channel can be revealing.

    4. One reading I was shown had a hallucination in it. A reading that was AI generated made reference to a family pet that didn’t exist with a name that wasn’t mentioned. If you see info that looks like it’s for someone else or a name that isn’t yours slipped in somewhere, your reading was probably done with AI.

    5. You see common AI phrasing, such as two contrasting pairs of adjectives together. Your romantic interest will be described as “strong but sensitive”, “funny but serious”, “curious but cautious”. Or, not this, but that.

    6. The reading may contradict itself in places. AI easily loses track of its own narrative because it doesn’t always understand what it is saying or how it fits into the bigger picture of your situation.

    If you’re after an intuitive recommendation for a general intuitive reading such as Tarot or channelling, let me know (Anna at annasayce.com). I only do Akashic Readings and Evolutionary Manifesting readings so I don’t do a general reading, but I can recommend intuitives I have trained or worked with myself. The recommendation will be genuine and I do not get any kickbacks for recommending people.

    Intuitive readings can sometimes be hard work but they are also immensely rewarding and preferable to many other kinds of work, at least for me. I don’t have to labour in the midday sun or deal with difficult people (hardly ever, at least.) Instead, I get to sit in my house and bask in the high vibrations of the Akashic Records. Reading on peoples’ past lives is endlessly fascinating and I learn a lot about history in the process. I am grateful for being able to do this work.

  • Cats of Caacupé

    Things have been quiet on my website for much of this year. I have not published my usual quantity of content, and this is mostly because I moved to Paraguay around one year ago.

    This is just an update on life here.

    I have spent a lot of time resting, focusing on my cats and sorting out my new life. When I left NZ last year to move to Paraguay, it was an unexpected and sudden move, due to structural problems with the roof in my rental. I had intended to move to South America but it was such a big move that my plan was to organise everything over 2-3 years. Instead I organised that whole move in 5 weeks when my roof failed. It was very stressful and tiring.

    When I got to Paraguay I found that the animal welfare situation was not good and there were many animals in need of a home. I left NZ with one cat, my dear Monty and we now have an additional 7 cats living with us (and 4 more who come here to eat every night).

    Monty

    Some of the cats have or have had complex needs because of their previous lives on the streets and this has taken a lot of work. But I have accepted this and feel this is also part of my reason for being here in Paraguay.

    In this post I’m going to tell the story of some of these cats.

    The first is Mamá.

    Mamá

    At the end of December 2025, Mamá showed up outside the gate here. It broke my heart to meet her because back then she was malnourished, with a very bony back, with incontinence in her bowels, dull fur, and she was very smelly because of the bowel issues.

    She appeared outside the gate and we started giving her large quantities of food to rescue her from the malnutrition. She would not come into the garden when we opened the gate, but would only sit outside, with wide eyes asking for food every night. For months I would wait for her between 9pm and 4am – I never knew when she would show up and I would worry the nights she didn’t come.

    I later found out that she used to belong to a neighbour but they left her behind when they moved and she was living in the shed of another neighbour who struggled with money and could not afford to feed her well. They also had mean dogs that chased cats, that she had to dodge to get to my gate.

    She had an older kitten (Chico, who also lives with us) and my sense was that her body had given everything she had to build the body of her kitten and nurse him, and by the time we found her she had nothing left. From looking at her she seemed to be on her last legs.

    It took Mamá about 7 months to fully recover physically from her old life and for her fur to finally get shiny and for her body to fill out.

    About 1 month after started feeding her back in December, Mamá got pregnant (she was not well enough to be neutered back then). She gave birth to three healthy and beautiful kittens. They lived on my roof for the first 10 weeks of their life and they were feral. About 10 weeks in, mamá brought them down into the garden and they now live in the shed and sleep on comfy chairs with soft blankets.

    Her kittens are Frida, Isabel and Ginger. I was not able to find them homes since they were feral as kittens, so this is now their long term home. All the cats are now neutered thankfully.

    Ginger the kitten
    Isabel

    The dad of some of the kittens is Patches the Mafia cat who is a real cool dude and very chill.

    Patches the mafia cat

    Alfie is another cat who has complex needs.

    Alfie

    He showed up here a few months ago with PTSD. He was also very bony. He was so on edge. He bit me several times and he fought everyone here, including the kittens and it’s been a hard couple of months for us but things have started to get better. I was able to get some tranquillising meds from the vet to calm him down, he takes them when he gets wound up, and he’s stopped biting me and fighting as much. He is slowly learning that he now has enough to eat and that no one will hurt him here.

    Another addition to our tribe is Chico, mamá’s older kitten who is the only one who lives in the house with us. Monty just about tolerates him.

    Chico

    I also look out for any cats who show up at my house needing help. There was Michote who arrived with a nasty burn on his neck, probably from contact with a hot car exhaust or motor.

    And Renato, a black cat whose face and upper body was covered in mange. He had lost his whiskers and couldn’t open one of his eyes. It was a sorry sight. Just a warning that below there is a photo of it, so don’t continue to read if this sort of thing upsets you. (It does have a happy ending though.)

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    He spent 12 days in the vet hospital being treated. When he got out, they put a little bandana on him at the vets and the poor thing ran off as soon as I let him out and I didn’t see him again for a couple of months. He came to eat here the other night (about 2 months after his vet stay) and looked mange free I’m happy to report. And he managed to get his little bandana off somehow! 🙂

    My heart is full of feline love but it has not been an easy road. I have an amazing helper who helps with the cats, with feeding, cleaning plates and keeping everything tidy, so I don’t have to do everything myself.

    I have been advised to start a cat charity but I don’t have time for all the admin and I also don’t have room to take on any more cats. So for now I am self funding this. So, anyone who does purchase from AnnaSayce.com, know that a portion of your purchase will go towards feeding and maintaining my cat kingdom here in Caacupé!

  • Nat’s Past Life in WW2 Poland & How it Affected her Finances

    In this article, I’m going to tell a past life story from one of my Evolutionary Manifesting readings that I did for a client called Nat, who has allowed me to share this with readers.

    It’s an interesting story that illustrates how past life traumas and blocks can follow us from one life to the next, and even interfere with what we are looking to manifest in our present lifetime.

    Have you ever tried manifesting but found it did not work for you?

    Maybe you couldn’t keep up with the techniques for long, or you never succeeded in shifting your state of being to ‘match’ your desired outcome. Or perhaps you did make that shift but your manifestation did not show up in reality.

    Past life blocks (also known as karmic complexes) are the number one reason why manifesting does not work.

    Nat’s story is a good example of this…

    …and I’m going to tell the story of her past life now.

    (Just a note that Nat booked a reading because she wanted to improve her financial situation.)

    It is 1943 and WW2 is raging in Europe. A young Polish man is working in a munitions factory in Częstochowa, Poland.

    This man is no more than 20 years old, and he walks with a limp – possibly from having survived Polio earlier on in his life. (The limp is the reason he works in this specific factory rather than having a worse time as a fully able-bodied person somewhere else.)

    At this time in his life, he’s working under pretty unpleasant conditions, and the people in charge of this factory are absolute sociopaths. There is another group of workers at the factory who have it far worse than he does and they are Jews. The people who run the factory treat the Jewish workers as less than human and they are essentially used as slaves. They are worked too hard, fed not enough and there’s someone in charge who seems to enjoy their suffering.

    This young Polish man suffers most from having to see this happen and not being able to do anything about it. By the end of the day, his jaw is so tense and he catches himself making a fist for no reason. His body is full of tension and anger.

    It is winter 1943 and it seems it is always overcast and grey. He is often depressed — what he doesn’t know is that he and the other workers are being poisoned with heavy metals from the munitions they are manufacturing, which only adds to his dark mood.

    But, what he witnesses in the factory gives him enough anger without the heavy metals poisoning. He is really angry and so are other Polish men who work there. They know that how the Jews are being treated is wrong but they can’t intervene, without losing their lives or being in extreme danger.

    So, he watches the abuse happen and he cannot do anything about it. And the worse thing is his own helplessness about it.

    He finds four other men working there who feel just as angry and powerless as he does about what is going on in the factory. Between the five of them, they decide that they will kill that sociopathic man in charge who is enjoying abusing those people.

    They decide to plant explosives that will kill this man.

    This young Polish man isn’t the one who plants the device but he has some piece of technical knowledge that helps with the plan, and which is essential. When the explosion goes off and the man dies, no one knows he helped.

    But two of the four men are discovered to be involved in the explosion and they are summarily executed.

    He is worried about getting a knock on the door once someone finds out how he helped. The knock doesn’t ever come but he is always afraid of it. 

    The men’s plan was for the evil manager of the factory to die and be replaced by someone less evil.

    However, the man who replaces the evil doer is just as bad, maybe even worse. Two men are dead, and the exploitation just carries on as if it never happened.

    This makes the young Polish man feel that it was all for nothing. Two of his workmates are dead. The factory boss is dead. The Jews are no better off. He may also be in danger now if someone finds out how he helped.

    Nothing has changed.

    The war ends and time marches on.

    By the time he reaches his thirties (over ten years after these events), the depression is always there. This young man never got the chelating drugs that were developed especially for munitions workers who worked in WW2 weapons factories. He still doesn’t know there’s a connection between his unbearably low mood and the work he did in the factory.

    He passes away by his own hand in 1954, and his dying thought is “I failed”. I failed in the plan to improve things at the factory. I failed to help the Jews. I failed because I did not overcome my depression and my mother will now find me. I didn’t even do right by my mother.

    His dying conclusion, the energy he takes with him into death is a vow of non-action:

    “I will never let myself get roped into anyone’s plans again. I will not act. I will not decide. I will not take the initiative.”

    A couple of decades later the soul of this man is born into an Australian woman’s body – my client Nat.

    Nat got a reading with me because she wanted to manifest more financial abundance.

    How exactly was Nat being affected by this past life story? Let’s break it down.

    Nat had a karmic complex originating from that previous life in Poland. It was her most recent life.

    What’s a karmic complex?

    Tibetan Buddhists believe that the experience we have at the end of a life is really important, because we take the energy of our death into the afterlife with us, and it governs whether we cross over and get a life review, or whether a small piece of the soul stays stuck and earthbound. And then the soul carries on its journey without that fragment, which is not an ideal situation.

    According to Tibetan Buddhism, when we have a bad death or die with trauma, rather than crossing over, getting a life review and choosing our next family and life, we run screaming from one cave into the next dark cave, and the energy of the cave we just ran out governs the next cave (i.e. womb) we run into.

    So, difficult and traumatic life experiences can make a mark on the soul. Tibetan Buddhists call these ‘samskaras’ and they’re like grooves in a record, where the same story repeats over and over. (The nature of trauma is to repeat itself until it finds resolution).

    If you have a situation, experience, type of person that you keep encountering in your life and it’s negative and unwanted, this is likely a samskara. Samskaras are also known as ‘karmic complexes’, a term that the past life regressionist Roger Woolger coined, to describe this compulsion the soul has to repeat its traumas life after life.

    Souls can sometimes repeat their traumas for several or many lifetimes before they find resolution or they can resolve them fairly quickly, as in Nat’s case.

    Nat’s vow of non-action was a karmic complex. It was affecting her in the area of work, finances and in her relationship with her wife (because they had been business partners.)

    Let’s look at how it manifested in her life…

    I was told that this vow of non-action was like driving with a handbrake on – not all the way on, but on to some extent. There was a ‘drag’ effect that affected how ‘fast’ Nat could go in her work life.

    Spirit told me this karmic complex had negatively affected Nat’s decision making and ability to see endeavours through to the end. It also impacted on her ability to speak up or communicate in ways that would move her work life forward.

    I was told that the financial struggles had been directly linked to this because it’s hard to build wealth when the ability to take action/decide and follow through is being undermined. It brought an energy of paralysis into her life that was not conducive to making good money.

    There was also a tendency to get swept up in other peoples’ schemes rather than acting from her own purpose and power – because the latter was something this past life self (who was unintegrated in her) was trying to prevent.

    Nat had been involved with many business ventures with her wife Jodie and they had done good work together, but they had had also had friction around their roles in the businesses.

    I had a sense that Jodie at times had to carry Nat’s work or finances “vehicle” within her own, because Nat had her handbrake on and wasn’t fully free to move forwards, which contributed to the friction and difficulties.

    Interestingly, Spirit linked this past life to a event in this lifetime that had been a low point financially for Nat…

    When Nat and her wife Jodie first got together, they went to live in Dubai for a while and they had a start up that (like many start ups) failed. It was a male acquaintance who offered the opportunity for the start up but it had not in retrospect been a good one. It was a scary time for the new couple as they got into debt because they were renting an office, and they worried about going to debtor’s prison in Dubai. They ended up having to leave the country quickly to avoid this.

    The man who set up this bad opportunity was according to Spirit the same soul that Nat helped to assassinate in the previous life in Poland. Spirit also said that the events in Dubai with an energetic signature of “they’re coming for us” (worrying about a knock on the door) was the same energetic signature of the fear in the Polish lifetime “they’re coming for me”.

    Here is the testimonial that Nat gave me after the reading:

    “For years, I’ve carried this feeling – like an invisible wall, a block that’s kept me from fully moving forward in parts of my life. I’ve done over twenty years of deep consciousness work, and yet that wall never budged. I began to wonder… what if something from a past life had followed me here? Something that still needed to be seen and healed?

    It turns out that’s exactly what was happening. During my reading, Anna shared that my last past life was in Poland during WWII – a time filled with so much fear and loss. As she spoke, I felt something inside me start to shift. Suddenly, patterns and behaviours that never made sense began to fit together like puzzle pieces. I started to understand myself – and my soul – on a profoundly deeper level.

    Since that reading that heavy, lifelong block has melted away. Bit by bit, I’ve felt freer, lighter, and more in flow. For the first time in as long as I can remember, I can make choices that feel truly aligned with who I am in this lifetime. It’s been about three months now, and I can still feel things moving and integrating – but the key is, they’re moving. For so long, they were just… stuck.

    Since then, my wife and I have found a beautiful new home that we absolutely love, reimagined our business in exciting ways, and deepened our relationship in ways we never had before. I also feel so much clearer about what really matters to me and where I want to focus my energy moving forward.

    My life lesson in this lifetime is ‘success’ – something Anna revealed to me in an earlier Akashic Record reading (which I also highly recommend). After the Evolutionary Manifesting reading, I now understand what success truly means to me, and that clarity continues to shift my energy, guide my decisions, and reshape my reality every day.

    If you’re feeling stuck, struggling to create what you love with ease and flow, or can’t quite figure out why life feels harder than it should, I can’t recommend an Evolutionary Manifesting reading with Anna enough. It has shifted everything for me – powerfully, and in such a short time.”

    Spirit recommended a specific course of action for Nat to resolve this complex but she ended up doing some other things to resolve it that she felt were successful, and she felt there was a shift just from getting the reading, too, which is something I often hear from clients.

    I have opened up my Evolutionary Manifesting readings for a limited period of time. I have 5 spots available and will close these readings once they are filled. If you’d like to book, you can do so here:

    On an unrelated note, my mini Akashic readings are also open again.
